I'm sure it could, but ginger is kinda stringy, when I tried to run it through a garlic press, it didn't work very well. Slices seem to do a good job of letting out the flavour without getting stringy bits in your mouth when you drink it. I suppose you could strain it too, but that's more dishes. Usually I just peel and slice an inch off the root, into the mug, in with some sugar, mash it around while I wait on the kettle.

Holy shit, home made Gingerade is powerful AF if you do it correctly. It is like 10x stronger than coffee and makes you feel like you have gained super strength, tastes isn't really as good as coffee though. Basically just take a full piece of massive ginger and run it through the juicer or blender if you have a strainer to take all the pulp out. Get the best water you possibly could place it inside a metal pot and boil the ginger itself as a syrup for like 1 hour on simmer mode insert your flavoring before hand so be it Tea or honey or whatever to cover the ginger taste. Then take completed drink place it inside the fridge until cold add three times the amount of water and BAM you have made some crazy powerful non caffeinated drink that wakes the **** outta you. It is similar to drinking water with stimulants inside of it.
